Subject: [PATCH] gn.pro: don't link statically with libstc++
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

While cross-compiling, qt5webengine is building a host tool but
want to link the libstdc++ statically. This requires to install
libstdc++-static package on the host (Fedora package name).

Otherwise the link fail with:

  [185/185] LINK gn
  FAILED: gn
  /usr/bin/g++ -O3 -fdata-sections -ffunction-sections -Wl,--gc-sections -Wl,-strip-all -Wl,--as-needed -static-libstdc++ -pthread -o gn -Wl,--start-group tools/gn/gn_main.o base.a gn_lib.a -Wl,--end-group -ldl
  /usr/bin/ld : unable to find -lstdc++
  [...]
  Project ERROR: GN build error!

Add --no-static-libstdc++ argument to gn.pro to link to
libstdc++.so.6 instead of libstdc++.a.

--no-static-libstdc++ has been added by [1] but it force
linking statically by default.
